The meeting will take place at a special building designated for full-fledged talks in the buffer zone.



Talat and Christofias who met fives times so far will continue to discuss the issue of administration and power sharing and negotiate "legislation". The leaders will also take up studies, carried out by representatives, Turkish Cypriots' Ozdil Nami and Greek Cypriots' George Iacovu, on "executive power mechanism."



The leaders who met on October 10 agreed to get together every week for talks.




Cyprus has been divided since 1964 when Turkish Cypriots were forced to withdraw into enclaves.



The launch of negotiations marked the first major push for peace since the failure of a U.N. reunification plan in 2004, which was approved by Turkish Cypriots but overwhelmingly rejected by the Greek Cypriots.



Power sharing disputes remain at the heart of the Cyprus problem. The Greek Cypriots are seeking a reunification under a strong federal government but the Turkish Cypriots prefer more a devolved union.



Other thorny issues include security guarantees and property settlement claims.
